"Considering wheeled recreation such as OHV and Mountain Bikes are the 
most popular forms of recreation, then the best way to accomplish the 
goal of encouraging people to enjoy the backcountry and to preserve 
access would be to provide more places where people can enjoy wheeled 
vehicle recreation. The Outdoor Initiative should remove support for the 
designation of Wilderness Areas and Monuments as both these land 
designations discourage or prohibit wheeled recreation and would 
therefore not be in keeping with the guiding principle of encouraging 
outdoor recreation. The Outdoor Initiative should support opening more 
trails to all forms of wheeled recreation so the public will have 
greater access to enjoy the Great American Outdoors."
